After partaking in much discussion on the forum, and lamenting over the sorry state of the Database, I sat down and put some thoughts about multiplayer Halo to HTML and posted a new article, Breaking Ground. It's more or less one long winded wish list, but hey, there's some paragraphs in there...
Seriously, 100 votes can't be an accurate cross section of our readers, can it? Go on, make your pick and click the button... your opinion is valuable, and besides, there's a pretty bar graph for the results... HOW CAN YOU RESIST?!
Hmm, the white suited men are here again...
Halo Central has relocated to halo.ancrik.com, so update those links and bookmarks before you forget.
See, we're not always serious... Ballade posted this little gem onto the forum, good for killing a few minutes. I wonder what the combatants would have to say about it... ;)
At least, I think it is. After an unecessarily long hiatus, the Database is running agin. It's still missing the improvements I wanted to make, but life is cruel like that. In the meantime, the articles are now available again, and I don't think it will blank out like that again... enjoy!
Back to the non-Halo related news. As posted at www.bungie.net, b.net will be reset on Monday (no, the Admins don't know exactly when this will happen). The reset will be accompanied by a few scoring changes, as detailed in the official announcement.
What a week. Beginning with Bungie's announcement of Halo early Wednesday morning, it's been one full of activity and revelations. To recap:
Kudos to Butcher and rojay, who both pointed out an interesting new Halo preview at Sharky Extreme (the former through email, and the latter through the forum post below). Some new information in this article, and some fodder for the FAQ... worth checking out.
